Hello, we joined work away in september 2018, and we are hosting our third guest, (the fourth is coming in less than a month, and we have agreements till november). We are looking for somebody to koin us for the end 2019 beginning 2020. We are a host family from more than 3 years, we hosted young students from all the world in exchange programs, we joined work away because we love to live in an international house, and we would love our kids to be open minded. We need some somebody that would like to join our family, that likes kids, and enjoys family life somebody that would like to feel like a relative for us (till now always happened with success). In our family we both work and need help with the kids and the house

During summer vacation period we ask baby sitting in the mornings when I go to work.Usually three four mornings. In a house with kids there are always toys everywhere and our guest task is to keep them in order. In the week days we ask to take care of the dish washer.

Helping us to keep the house in order and be like a relative to us. We need somebody that loves to stay outside, and enjoys walking, both schools are in a walking distance, 20 minutes. We are interested in creating a durable relation with our guest so that when the kids will be older we could met some where in the planet :-).
